Chapter 721

The root cause of all this was that Huangfu had underestimated his enemies, so the war could be said to have killed nearly 100000 soldiers. Every time he thought about it, Huangfu Chaobo felt regretful. If he thought more carefully, the consequences might not be like this.

Soon after Huangfu Chaobo left the wounded camp, some soldiers came to the camp. They had to help these seriously injured soldiers and arrange them everywhere, such as on the wall of the stronghold dressed as soldiers on duty. Some soldiers would be placed everywhere in the camp. They would use all kinds of materials in the camp to stop the enemy as much as possible, so as to buy time for the retreating zepao.

After all this was arranged, it was evening. At this time, there were no other soldiers and horses in the camp except the seriously injured taxis. Even the horses left in the camp were injured.

Huangfu Chaobo stood on the pontoon and looked back at the camp. He swore that he would be ashamed when he came back next time.

At this time, the same arrangement was estimated in Wenxi city. All the soldiers and horses who were ready to leave had assembled more than ten miles north of Sushui, and nearly 20000 horses were ready. Besides leaving 1000 white horses for Yicong and Tutu cavalry to protect the central army, all their horses were used to transport personnel.

First, more than 10000 people were sent to Geng Township, while the rest of the people went to Geng Township on foot. After the horses sent the people to Geng Township, they sent people to drive them back all night. The two sides met on the way, and then the horses sent more than 10000 people. So again and again, until everyone arrived at Geng township.

Of course, the premise is that Xu Rong did not catch up before everyone arrived at Geng township.

When the army started to set out, Yang Feng in the north and Zhou Tai in the South also received news at the same time. At night, Yang Feng began to arrange for soldiers to cross the river quietly. There were only a few hundred of them, but they needed to occupy Donghuang on the other side of the river overnight, and then set up a floating bridge to meet the army.

The next morning, the players in Pishi suddenly found that a bridge had been built on the Fenshui River overnight. Then Donghuang town by the river was controlled by the army and no one was allowed to go in and out. For a moment, the army didn't know what had happened. However, the news was soon found out by the officials in Pishi city. Then Pishi County closed the city gate, and teams of soldiers boarded the city wall to be ready.

Time went back to the night of the retreat. After joining the army, Huangfu Chaobo ordered to leave overnight. The more than 10000 soldiers who left first were slightly more seriously injured, and the others with minor injuries who could move themselves would go with most of them first.

Of course, it's not to let them rush along with the brigade, because there are still a lot of wagons in the army, which are pulled by horses. They are usually used to transport food and materials, but now they are just used to transport soldiers. Put a few bags of grain on each car, and then let soldiers ride on it, killing two birds with one stone.

After leaving Sushui river for nearly 20 years, Huangfu Chaobo ordered the army to light a torch and advance at full speed. For a time, in the night, like tengma, a huge fire dragon, stretching for several miles, all the way north.

The next morning, the two armies of Anyi went to attack the camp as usual, and the first round of attack was by 5000 soldiers of Xiliang army. People feel very happy that, as Xu Rong expected, the first round of attack into the camp. But this time seems to be too easy, Xu Rong heart suddenly Teng up a bad feeling.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the fire to soar up in the camp.

"Damn it, Si Zhou army has already run away!" Xu Rong stood up and yelled angrily;

soon, dozens of soldiers ran out of the camp, came to Xu Rong's generals and said, "general, there are only some wounded soldiers in the Sizhou army camp, and the rest of the soldiers have disappeared. Moreover, the camp is full of igniters, and many soldiers have been surrounded by the fire."

"Quick, fan Hou, the cavalry will go around the camp and go to the pontoon to see the situation." Xu rongqiang pressed the anger in his heart and said: "the governor of Jiang immediately ordered the soldiers to set up the floating bridge. At no cost, the fastest speed is to set up the floating bridge. The cavalry is ready. Once the bridge is ready, they will start immediately. The army of Sizhou has many wounded soldiers and can't run fast."

With his series of military orders issued, the officers and men of the two armies were all busy. Squadrons of cavalry roared out of the army, led by the general, bypassed the burning Sizhou army camp, and headed for the pontoon at the duguankou behind them.

In the city of Zhong'an, a large number of craftsmen from the people and Zhuang nationality came out, dragging a large amount of wood and other materials with carriages, and running towards the South Bank of Wushui river. They wanted to build a floating bridge.

As a matter of fact, Xu Rong has been making preparations for crossing the river. However, for one thing, because he really wants to capture Sizhou camp as soon as possible, and the resistance of the camp is really fierce, he doesn't care much about crossing the river, either Xu Rong or Jiang Pei. For another thing, the cavalry of Sizhou army on the other side of the river is patrolling the river day and night, and Xu Rong just wants to build a bridge There are not many opportunities, if the bridge is far away, for Xu Rong, the significance is not very great.

However, even so, Xu Rong asked Jiang Pei to order the craftsmen to prepare all kinds of materials so that the floating bridge could be quickly erected at the right time.Originally, Xu Rong thought that the bridge had to be built after the camp was broken, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

When fan Hou led the cavalry to the pontoon behind the Sizhou army camp, he was relieved to see that the pontoon was still there. Although he didn't know why the Sizhou army was so careless, fan Hou cautiously sent hundreds of people to dismount and prepare to seize the pontoon, because everyone could see that Sizhou had set up a defense on the other side of the river, and there were still some others The soldiers were there.

When Xu Rong and Jiang Pei arrived at the pontoon under the protection of their own guards, they just saw that more than 100 soldiers of fan Chou had already reached the center of the pontoon, and they could cross the river only a few dozen steps away.

Just at this time, the Sizhou army on the opposite side suddenly fired dozens of rockets. As soon as the smoky arrows fell on the bridge deck, they immediately ignited the deck of the floating bridge. In a moment, the fire quickly surrounded more than 100 soldiers on the bridge, and the whole floating bridge fell into a sea of fire.

Looking at the sea of fire in front of him and listening to the cry of his taxi drivers, Xu Rong felt that his blood was surging up. However, he soon calmed down and said to the generals around him, "go ahead and order the craftsmen to build the floating bridge in half a day. All the cavalry will be on standby. After the bridge is finished, general fan will lead the cavalry to cross the river to pursue."
